The Emerald Fixed TV Wall Mount is a very sturdy product! It took less than 20 minutes for me to mount a 45 inch T.V. After a very easy installation (thanks to great instructions!) it was clear that the TV is not going anywhere. The mount is completely hidden by the TV and only sticks out about an inch from the wall. The only reason why I gave it four stars is because I now wish it had the tilting capability. Other than that, it's a great, easy to install product. I would definitely purchase again if I were looking for another fixed wall mount.
